I did cause I had a feeling you'd appreciate it

You missed the fact that they are counting [size=200400[/size votes. Hardly a hard task. I'm sure they could even get some wakey fans to help with the counting. Couldn't give them more than 5 votes each however, wouldn't want to overstrech them now would we. I kinda like this idea - the RFL doing its bit for the community. They could come and collect you in access busses too!

Makes a change from them traveling to games on rafts made of turnips.

I thought you were earlier claiming that Peacock's final total of SL appearances this season would go against him but now you're suggesting that the vote was carried out some time before the Challenge Cup final and therefore before the end of the Regular season.

For an alleged self appointed expert on the Man of Steel it's suddenly all becoming a bit vague.

pointless popularity contest and doesnt reflect achievement that year. The last MOS who actually won the SL title was Wellens back in 2006 before that you have to go back to peacock in 2003. Hardly a reflection of a dominanting performance. Hodgson last year was a joke

Wow, a glory hunter fan! How unique!

For an "unintelligent" Wakefield fan, he's run rings round you lot.

The childish insults hurled in his direction are typical signs of an unwillingness to admit defeat.

Thank you.

Your avatar is embarrassing.

Translation: I can't pick holes in your post, so I'll have a go at your avatar/profile/lifestyle/team/sexual orientation/children (in the case of Huddersfield fans) instead, as if that's a valid response that somehow renders what you said less credible.


Outcome: FAIL.

Wow, that's some translation. To be honest I hadn't even read your post. I still think your avatar is embarrassing. Blaming the referee is just about understandable in the heat of the moment, but that Wigan-Saints game was ages ago, you must be really bitter.

The only thing he's running rings around is his own argument why Peacock didn't make the shortlist.

Are you on drugs? He hasn't made one half decent argument! He manages to contradict his own comments in later posts.

But there is an I in Meat Pie, and Meat is an anagram of Team.

You've got some red on you.

Who rattled your cage?

It seems that the sour grapes you have had to consume are still leaving a bitter taste in your mouth.

YOU LOST get over it.

I have a very good reason why Peacock or any other Leeds player did not make the short list, and i would say it is fairly conclusive.......No Leeds player made the list because they were not deemed good enough by there fellow professionals. Simple as that really and in truth is it really that shocking? Really?

What sour grapes?

The only sour grapes here seem to be from Leeds fans convinced that not one of their players making the shortlist is somehow wrong.

That's arrogance at its worst, and your statement that people who stick by their team through thick and thin are somehow "unintelligent" beggars belief.

We may have lost last week, but we're still in the running, we've lost less than you, and we're one trophy to the good. You've just found out you've no players in the running for MOS, so I suggest you get those grapes out of your gob.

And for what it's worth, I don't like grapes.



FLAWLESS VICTORY. FATALITY.

Diddums. Not to long ago the sole reason you came on here was to suck up too Leeds and offer your respect as a Wigan fan in their battle against those pesky Saints.

Now things are heated you have reverted to type. I enjoyed the supreme irony of a Pie lecturing others on the pitfalls of arrogance. Satire at its best.

Let me spell it out for you. Leeds beat Wigan because they were the better team on the night. No end of bleating about Danny Maguire (frustrating though it may have been), tetchiness about MOS, and pretentions that the hubcap is a trophy will change that.

Leeds by plenty at Headingley.

That's because in the order of things, you winning was the lesser of two evils. And I hardly "sucked up".

One other thing that has changed is that back when I praised Leeds, you were a clean team who played well. This year, you've got away with far more than even St Helens have.



Don't talk wet. After the match last week, I posted this:

"We let ourselves down tonight. We did what we did against Huddersfield a few weeks ago. Instead of playing well and being the better team, we dropped our discipline to their level and gave away penalties where we shouldn't."

Arrogant? Not one bit. Calling other fans stupid for supporting their team? Not me, look a bit closer to home.



Read what I posted above. I admitted Leeds were the better team. I don't blame Danny McGuire's cheating at all, however I do think injury to Paul Deacon didn't help. As for tetchiness about MOS, again, look a little closer to home.



Now THAT'S irony.



Now THAT'S arrogance.

who's going to tell him?

What...??? That he's replying to a Saints fan?

Well, not being blessed with the ability to read minds, I'm hardly likely to know.

If that is the case, I'm sorry, I made an assumption that someone posting on the Leeds board in favour of Leeds with arrogance akin to certain Leeds fans who have already posted would also be a Leeds fan.

My points are still valid, they just need re-wording slightly.

All ok for everyone now?

im interested to hear you explain how it is arrogant for a saints fan to favour Leeds above Wigan?

OK, given that Wigan and Leeds currently stand with 2 wins each out of 4 meetings, Leeds only just beat us (no matter how questionably) last week, and are now without their best (and most dangerous) player as a result, it would be arrogant to suggest that either team, let alone Leeds, are going to win by "plenty". By anyone. That's if we even face each other next week.

Assuming we do, in my opinion, it's going to be a close, hell-for-leather game, the winners of which will be exhausted and need to call up something amazing if they're to win the Grand Final.

I think we're going to have a memorable classic on our hands, but I hope for all the right reasons.

As for who's going to win it... who can say. Home advantage is with Leeds, fit bodies say the advantage is with Wigan. League position counts for nothing now.
